Is there a way to activate windows remotely via powershell with smart card?

For some reason our domain doesn't have a KMS server setup. So we are forced to activate windows manually. This only works for 180 days however users start seeing the popups regarding windows is going to expire a couple weeks before that.

ICM -CN $CN {slmgr /fta <thumbprint> <pin>}    

I'm trying to find a way to remotely push this one liner that will activate windows however I'm receiving an error 0x8010000C which basically is just complaining the smart card isn't inserted in the remote computer.

So I'm about out of ideas other then getting a digital copy of the certificate used and installing it on every computer hoping it pulls from that and not from my card.

Ended up having to write more than I wanted and had to give up trying to run it remotely. So created a local script and wanted to share this for anyone who runs into the same issue, rare as this will probably be and should be.

There are probably better ways to write it but it's working as of now.

    [string]$Message = 'Windows will expire soon. Would you like to renew the license key?',

)
